The Craving Creativity Podcast is our cry for help, a way to help ourselves as creatives to talk about how we get inspired, how we create but also how we deal with stress, mental illness and everything in between.
When you are a creative, it has always been hard to fit into a “normal” life with 9-5, career plans and dreams of a wonderful retirement. If you are a true creative then all you want to do is create.
If you are a creative you are most likely seen as the black sheep of the family, making different choices than 95% of “normal” people would do. Not going for the safe choice but always living a little on the edge
Throw in a pandemic and confine us in our homes during multiple lockdowns, with no creative outlets in the form of galleries, theaters, cinemas, music venues and creatives will have a much harder time adjusting than the regular Joe.
With the Craving Creativity Podcast it is our hope to create a safe place where we can talk about being creative. We want to build a community of like minded creatives and help each other. Subscribe, email us cravingcreativitypodcast@gmail.com and be part of the creative journey.

Editing is about refining, chipping away, honing in, changing, and adapting your creative work. Editing is part of the creative process and we need to talk about how important it is as a creative. But when do you know it is ready?
Quote:
"To me, the single biggest mark of the amateur writer is a sense of hurry. Hurry to finish a manuscript, hurry to edit it, hurry to publish it. It's definitely possible to write a book in a month, leave it unedited, and watch it go off into the world and be declared a masterpiece. It happens every fifty years or so. For the rest of us, the single greatest ally we have is time. There's no page of prose in existence that its author can't improve after it's been in a drawer for a week. The same is true on the macro-level – every time I finish a story or a book, I try to put it away and forget it for as long as I can. When I return, its problems are often so obvious and easy to fix that I'm amazed I ever struggled with them. Amateur writers are usually desperate to be published, as soon as possible. And I understand that feeling – you just want it to start, your career, your next book, whatever. But I wonder how many self-published novels might have had a chance at getting bought, and finding more readers if their authors had a bit more patience with them?" -
Charles Finch (The Vanishing Man, The Last Enchantments)
